Listen: Alexis Taylor Of Hot Chip – “Elvis Has Left The Building”

Await Barbarians is out June 9 via Domino

Alexis Taylor recently announced the release of his upcoming sophomore album, Await Barbarians, for June 9 via Domino. If you find his voice familiar that’s because he’s also the frontman for electro-pop heavyweights Hot Chip. His solo sound takes a turn away from their brightness and chooses a slower and more somber tone. Today Taylor released the single, Elvis Has Left The Building, which shows how his voice lends well to the slower pace and stripped-down production, squashing any worry that this wasn’t going to be refreshing.
